The Beginnings Of Medicine, Via The Back Passage.
Hello, Mick here.
When I should have been in short pants, but didn't have any, medicine was hardly a tonic.

The skin on your face is exposed to a barrage of toxins and

environmental damage on a daily basis. It must withstand

pollution, ultraviolet rays, wind, and debris, as well as the

harmful chemicals in 99% of all skin care products and

cosmetics. The skin on your face is the most delicate skin on

your body. Therefore there are many specialty products that have

been developed specifically for your facial skin. It can be

difficult to decipher which products perform which tasks, and

which products would work the best with your skin type. Heres a

primer on the most common facial products available.



A Word About Facial Skin Before you can select the facial skin

care products that would work best for you, you need to

determine your skin type. Basically, facial skin is categorized

as either normal, oily, dry, sensitive, or combination. If

youve never had problems with oily skin or dry skin, its

likely that you have normal skin. The pores of normal skin are

small and the overall skin tone is even. Oily skin, on the other

hand results in medium to large pores that are prone to blockage

and breakouts. Oily skin is usually slightly too moderately

greasy and is thicker and firmer than normal skin. Dry skin

feels tight and itchy, especially in the winter. It is thinner

than normal skin and may even be slightly rough to the touch.

People with sensitive skin are usually the ones who actually

know their skin type. Sensitive skin is prone to rashes and

breakouts from any kind of irritants such as sun, perfumes,

shaving cream, temperature extremes, and even soap. Avoid

products with dyes, perfumes, or unnecessary chemical

ingredients in all skin conditions. As its name implies,

combination skin has both dry and oily patches. Most commonly,

combination skin exhibits an oily T-Zone (forehead, nose and

chin) with dry skin on the cheeks and around the eyes.



Facial Skin Care Products



Facial Cleansers: Soap can be very drying to facial skin. So it

is best to use a facial wash or cleanser that is specifically

designed for the face.



Skin Toners: Skin toners offer extra cleaning and help to

restore the pH balance of your facial skin. However, these

Do Roasted Peanuts Cause Acne?
Many people wonder what the active cause for acne to occur on an individual really is a result from and some folks even attribute it to roasted peanuts. The truth .....
products can be quite drying, so if you have dry or sensitive

skin, you will not need to use a skin toner.



Anti Aging Creams: Facial skin care creams made of antioxidants

(particularly vitamins C and E), vitamin A or alpha-hydroxy

acids (AHAs), are commonly used to help reduce the appearance of

wrinkles and restore luster to the skin. These products may make

a variety of claims regarding their efficacy and time required

to see results. Use caution when reviewing a facial skin care

product that claims to be a miracle cure to aging.



Eye Creams: Eye creams are specifically made to pamper the

delicate skin under and around the eyes. They help to plump and

tighten under eye skin and they can reduce fine lines and

wrinkles (like crows feet) that develop around the eyes. I

recommend Parfait Visage



Moisturizers: Moisturizers help to hydrate skin and reduce the

effects of aging over time.



Sunscreen: Sunscreen is the most important facial skin care

product for the health and protection of your skin. The suns

rays, even in small amounts can be very damaging to the skin on

your face. Protect it with a natural sunscreen of at least an

SPF 15 everyday.



Facial Cleansers: The fragile skin on your face needs a gentle

cleanser that is designed for facial skin. Facial cleansers may

come in liquid, foam, gel, towelette, or bar form.



AHAs: Alpah Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) work wonders at smoothing out

the texture of skin and reducing the visibility of fine lines.

These products work by sloughing off dead skin cells to unblock

and cleanse pores, to improve oily skin or acne, and to improve

skin condition in general. The extent of exfoliation that a

facial skin care product is capable of depends on the type and

concentration of the AHA, its pH (acidity), and other

ingredients in the product.



Exfoliators: These facial skin care products utilize a variety

of ingredients such as nuts, alpha hydroxy acids, and

microcrystals to gently remove dead skin cells and reveal the

healthy, radiant skin underneath. They are best used

occasionally to restore luster to dull or dry skin.



Sunless Tanners: As their name implies, sunless tanners are used

to tan the skin without exposure to the sun. These products vary

greatly in quality, time requirements, and ease of application.

They should be used with caution. A poor quality or poorly

applied sunless tanner will produce unnatural results. These

sunless tanners also contain harmful chemicals which can be

absorbed by your skin.
